Staying up to date with the news is a huge part of David Pakman’s job. As one of the most popular progressive political pundits on the internet today, he’s spent years navigating the media landscape. And that can really wear a person down! He's not immune to burnout caused by local and global crises covered in today's nonstop news cycles.
In this mini episode, Pakman confesses his own exasperation about modern politics, emphasizes the importance of media literacy, and offers ideas about how we can stay engaged without losing ourselves in the chaos.
In this mini episode of Relationscapes we're talking about our relationship to the news, digging in to David's new book The Echo Machine: How Right-Wing Extremism Created a Post-Truth America.
